Hello, When Basil molts the whole world knows about it. Fur is going everywhere. The first time it happened though, I freaked out because I had never seen a ...
Am wondering if there is a rabbit in the cage next to this little one that is pulling fur through the wire? I had one to pull a wad of fur out of another's...
Hey everyone, I'm nervous as usual when getting a bun fixed. Sweetie goes in today for the surgery. She is about 3-4 yrs. old and I just adopted her a few...
Hello, I was wondering how everyone goes about feeding the rabbits hay so they do not create a huge mess. I just put handfulls of hay in with my buns, and it ...
Hi Gayle, My fingers and toes are all crossed for Sweetie. My two girls go in
together in a couple of weeks time. I feel worried sick already!!. It's so...
Hi Tammy, Funny you should ask this. I took my buns in for their "pre-spay health
check" yesterday and the vet (a different one to the one I usually see) said...
A rabbit losing fur at the base of the neck is the first sign of fur mites. Check for ''dandruff'' like flakes on the skin. 9 weeks old is not a 'normal'...
I'm writing to see if anyone else have came across this before. My rabbit has a mass over her shoulder. I am a vet tech so I examed it a little closer then...
Sweetie made it through the surgery okay, but the vet thinks that she has/had uterin cancer. They are not sure as to get the uterus checked out is going to...
At about 8-12 weeks, most young rabbits will go through a molt. Most of them will begin a molt on the head or just behind the head on the back of the neck....

Thanks, everyone, for your replies. I checked out Kichou's skin and there is very fine peach fuzz coming through. The skin seems okay--a little pink and...
Thanks Linda! You must get them spayed though....what happened to Sweetie basically was caused because of her age and not being spayed. Pet rabbits live a...
This is for Linda, I am truly amazed when a Vet tells a rabbit owner to eliminate all pellets and only feed hay. Obviously this vet is getting information...
Good to hear that Sweetie made it through surgery OK. At this point, whether she had cancer or not is not the issue. Generally speaking, uterine cancer in...
I have a Netherland Dwarf doe with mastitis. Her kits are a month old and just starting to eat oats so I'm hoping they will be ok. I've separated them and...

My rabbit died from uterin cancer. I didn't know she was a SHE until she started bleeding and I made an emergency trip to the vet. She was also a rescue and I...
Karen, I have been reading about a few people feeding their rabbits only hay, then wondering why they act like they are starving to death. I am curious if you...
The ONLY time I have ever heard feed only hay was when I had a sick rabbit (runny stool) and we were trying to clear it up. I have never heard anything from...
Thanks Ron, I think the vet did get it all and that it didn't spread. She said that she looked good. I did insist on pain meds and antibiotics though. I had...
Thanks Karen! A few others have basically said the same thing, so I'm very hopeful at this point....definately not as discouraged as before! Thanks again for...
<<Anyway, her uterus was filled with blood. They said it could have been because she was coming into heat, but they didn't think so. They are very rabbit...
Hiya Karen and everyone else who has confirmed my thoughts, I was very angry at the vet telling me to feed only hay, especially when
only a few moments later...
I'm real glad she came through ok. My Angel is unspayed, they aborted the procedure. Said it was too dangerous the way she was breathing, she may have heart...
Yeah I was on their website not too long ago and I THINK they were advocates of a well balanced mixed diet. Pellets, veggies, and unlimited hay. Ron and Angel ...
Linda, Maybe you should get some of the pamphlets that ARBA (Amercian Rabbit Breeeders Assoc) distributes. This is a world wide organization dedicated to ...
